Rabbi Zvi Teichman:  ראש הישיבה

    Rabbi Teichman has been involved in chinuch for over twenty five years. He taught at                   Yeshiva University of Los Angeles high schools and Bais Medrash programs and served as      the Rabbi of Young Israel of Los Angeles. Upon making aliyah in 1993, he headed Machon     Bnos Yehuda, an affiliate of Bais Yaakov Academy. During his years in Israel he authored         Eretz HaTzvi a halachic guide to the mitzvos that pertain to Eretz Yisrael. While still living in         Eretz Yisrael, he founded Yeshivas Tiferes Yerushalayim on the campus of Boys Town             Jerusalem. From 1998 to 2007 Rabbi Teichman served as Rosh Mesivta of Yeshivas Chofetz Chaim, Talmudical Academy of Baltimore, where he transformed a high school of 60 talmidim to a vibrant makom Torah of well over 130 talmidim.

    Rabbi Teichman has endeared himself to his many talmidim through his warmth, wisdom, practicality, and non-judgmental nature. With these qualities, Rabbi Teichman instills confidence in his talmidim and enables them to navigate the difficulties of balancing the practical realities of two worlds. Rabbi Teichman’s longstanding success and outstanding reputation makes him eminently suited to lead this vital Yeshiva program. By providing them with the much needed chizuk and guidance as they transition to a multi-focused life, the loss of momentum which so often occurs in the years following Yeshiva can be avoided. To meet the needs of these talmidim, Rabbi Teichman has undertaken to provide a Yeshiva program where they can “keep a kesher, and maintain the momentum” securing, maintaining, and building upon all that they have accomplished during their formative years in Yeshiva.
